Become familiar with VStar by example, optionally trying some features, follow-up. Need Java 1.6 or higher installed. Click Download VStar Now button on this page: development development

Screenshots in slides to come are included to indicate key aspects of what attendees saw. VStars appearance has changed slightly since Citizen Sky 2, mostly with respect to background plot color and additional information on phase and mean plots. W Uma phase plots, eps Aur light curve, and omi Ceti polynomial fit show some of these changes.
